Marrocan wedding
« on: September 13, 2015, 11:25:56 »
To my pleasant surprise there was live music in my street yesterday.
May I say I loved the music, the rhythm, and the atmosphere.
I was stuck on my balcony enjoying the party :)

Images taken with Df and 50/1.8G (not my favorite lens I have to admit, at least I don't know how to use it).

Live music brought to your balcony. What could be better?

Live (un-expected) music in the neighbourhood is so cool - draws people out from every hole :)

Go knock on the door (#2) of the newly weds and ask them. (I'd take them a wedding present.)

A nicely framed print shot from your balcony would be a nice present.

It goes something like this:

When sounds like these start echoing through your street, your first thoughts are - what on earth is going on.
You step onto the balcony and you get glued with a huge smile on your face :D

Wow ... that is good stuff! (I almost spilled my coffee when I started dancing.)

+2!  Great music!  I can only imagine how that came across live, Jakov.  Why can't I have music like that every once in a while hitting my balcony (deck)?  The joys of living in the mid-west, I guess...


Cheers,

Thank you Gary and Raaj!
I am a huge fan of African music and this was a true treat (I should have made a video of it).
